my wife saw the trailer first time and she asked me: If the Prometheus-Story "happends" a few years back than the Alien-Story.. why looks all the equipment (the ship, the displays etc.) in Prometheus so modern? Any ideas how to explain? ....cant wait (June 1st. Den Haag/Netherlands)

what artyho posted on a similar thread: "I think they should have gone with a retro vibe, as well. Abacuses instead of computers. Slabs of black slate, instead of flatscreens. Everyone dressed in animal skins with unshaven faces, legs and armpits. They could have everyone stick their arms out of the port-holes and flap them to get the ship going faster. The hull could be made of roughly finished stone and logs tied together with thick, hemp ropes. They could name the ship: "The Shard" and the main character names could be Fred, Barney, Wilma and Betty. The Engineers could look just like the rock-monster from "Galaxy Quest." The movie could end with Fred chained to a rock, while a pterodactyl gnaws on his his tie." I would personally pay to see something like this. I just had to re-post this post of yours, artyoh. Brilliant, just brilliant.
